Yeah, that makes good sense.

Any recommendations for an otherwise dark laundry room? I like the 4'
fluorescent tubes because they make plenty of light and it have a decent
"spread".

Thanks. Are these easy to find at home hardware stores (ie home depot)

do I need to go to a specialty lighting store?

You might be better off just connecting your motion detector to
regular incandescent lights. A motion sensor light isn't usually on
for very long so there is not much electricity to be saved with a
flourescent bulb, AND a motions sensor light often goes on and off a
lot which eventually kills flourescent lights (they are best at long
continuous burns), AND people often want "quick strike" (the light to
go on as immediately as possible without blinking or warmup) on a
motion detector light. All of which are the characteristics of a
traditional incandescent light bulb.
